The Big 5-0-0

Late yesterday afternoon, I created the 500th page of New England Online. The page’s subject was SH Smith House. This marks a pretty significant milestone for the website, and i’m really happy the site has grown so quickly and so easily these last few years.

Ahead lie some more challenges and some of those big changes I have been promising. But the biggest change will be in the way the storyline is handled. Up until now I have placed pages into a category of complete or incomplete, with content that was incomplete supposedly prone change at any time. A recent wave of changes through the site affected whole sections, so this dichotomy was a flawed way of looking things. From now on, the version of the website will determine it’s completeness, and I am hoping to make version 4 a stable copy that will endure for the rest of time.
